    Jacob and Joshua Miller of Nemesis Claim to Have Been Officially ``Disfellowshipped'' by the Jehovah's Witnesses


    LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The following is a joint statement by Jacob and Joshua Miller of the pop-rock band Nemesis and reality stars of "Jacob & Joshua: Nemesis Rising":

    The two of us were just informed that last night a Jehovah's Witness meeting took place in our hometown of Kalispell, Montana.At this meeting it was announced to all members of the Jehovah's Witness organization that wehave been, as Jehovah's Witnesses would say, "disfellowshipped" (excommunicated) because of our homosexuality and our participation in our reality show, "Jacob & Joshua: Nemesis Rising," on Logo.

    According to Jehovah's Witness doctrine, being "disfellowshipped" means that we have been found guilty of unrepentant gross misconduct.Our immediate family is to have limited or no contact with us.And all other practicing Jehovah's Witnesses around the world are not to speak with us ever again.

    Although we are no longer Jehovah's Witnesses, we have nothing but love for those individuals who have been asked to shun us.We will continue to be in contact with our family and those who truly love us unconditionally as long as they're willing.
    We find it ironic that a religion whose members are asked to knock on the doors of strangers with a message of acceptance into paradise on Earth will not accept two of its own children for who they really are.Our wish for them is one of tolerance and understanding and we send to all of them a message of peace and love.
    - Jacob & Joshua

    Good for them for putting a public statement out like that. Maybe some will read and see the JW's for what they really are and not fall prey to their door to door ministry.

    i've watched their show.. the dark headed one really seems like a sweetheart and the blonde one is too but he seems more responsible and mature. both seem to be pretty good kids.their family seem nice too although diehard dubs.

    the dark haired one cracked me up when he said he used to run his car in the ditch on the way to the kingdom hall to get out of having to give a talk lol.

    i hope their family continue to love them and associate with them. it would be terrible to see that nice family broken up because of the watchtower.
